The current receiver being used on the 6GHZ I-Gate doesn't like the Big Red Bee. The initial receiver would gate the BRB packets direct. I refer to my earlier post about Yaesu's...! :) http://warsug.info/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=7010&p=83097&hilit=chock#p83097 It's a mark of Yaesu quality - ...

Perth now has a second Internet Gateway. 8) Good work to those involved in setting up...! :lol: I hope it doesn't do VK6HGR's I-Gate out of a job! There must be a bit of ducting tonight.

Yaesu is actually the Japanese word for wheel chock...!

I tell you what Martin, by the time the FT350 gets to the Mark V version all those bugs should be ironed out.

When I got my MT-AIO during the week, I set UI-View to send received data on 145.175 to the net which is why VK6KCH-3 appears now. It has been going for a while it seems but invisible. My UI-View to the net is only running occassionally when I want to try something out and not going to be a long te...

Good to see a bit of APRS activity starting up in Bunbury. 8) Yes good to see VK6KCH-3 digipeater on air from Bunbury and VK6ADF-9 driving around.
